Marie-Antoinette et le Chevalier de Maison-Rouge (Musical) - La France dalszöveg fordítás angol nyelvre

France

With its villages and castles,
its grey houses by the waterside,
I know very well what people do there1.
 
With its fears and angers,
its revolutionary ideas,
I know it better than you'd think.
 
With its belfries and churches
and customs. Whatever they say,
it still harbours a desire for insolence2
 
Though I might have offended it at some point,
it is like an heartache
that makes me quietly cry.
 
France, France
is like the shadow of a cross under Provence's sky.
France
is keeping faith while all bets are off3.
 
With its romantic gardens4,
its fishing harbours on the Atlantic,
I know its diversity5.
 
With all its craftsman trades,
stonecutters or peasants,
it's been moving forth for 2000 years.
 
With its immortal provinces,
the cherished child of the Sun King6
I know his descendants well.
 
With its words of liberty,
equality, fraternity
which never occurred to me.
 
France, France
is to believe until the end, until the last chance.
France
is to keep our childhood memories inside of us7
 
France, France,
it remains my country, from yesterday to today.
France,
with all its colours, remains in my heart.
 

• 1. lit. 'the way they dance there', but the idea is rather 'what's going on there'
• 2. that sounds pretty bad in French too, like corporate or media waffle
• 3. more precisely: when the result is inevitable
• 4. actually the 'romantic' movement didn't exist at the time, it was an invention of the triumphant bourgeois social class that would bloom in the mid-19th century
• 5. 'différence' is a trendy politically correct word for 'diversity'
• 6. a common nickname for Louis XIV, a most prestigious king of France who ruled with great pomp for 70 years until early 18th century
• 7. what a lot of hot air...
